According to James Wickham with Forrest Tire, the new store is still in the planning and blueprint stages.  They are hoping to be in their brand new location in the next 10-12 months.

The sprawling 6666 Ranch is one of Texas' crown jewels. Established in 1870, the legendary Samuel Burk Burnett built himself an empire of cattle and Quarter Horses.

You can imagine the shock that rippled across Texas when the historic ranch that is twice the size of Chicago was listed for sale.
